But ya things here have kind've been the same old same old. We've been grinding the work out here for the past two weeks and pretty much have nothing to show for it haha. But good news is that we have a baptism date out here! Heydda is still 8 but we have her baptism scheduled for her birthday on the 29th when she turns 9. Iykyk missionaries.
Things with my companion have been kinda iffy sometimes, so when we went to Durango last week, I ended up staying there for almost 3 days on some super awesome exchanges! Elder Lugo went to Vicente Guerrero (my area) with my companion to figure out what was up with him and my area and I stayed in Durango w/ Elder Pace. I could write a whole separate email about those exchanges, but I won't. Some highlights of that is that it pourrred on us, I got a free sombrero, and that I just got to talk in English hahaha.
Also something super sad that happened is that all the members here were super excited to go on a huge temple trip, but it ended up getting canceled last minute here. They really needed that trip and they're all super mega bummed now and the entire branch is just discouraged. Pray for these homies they're awesome.
But ya I can already tell that this wasn't one of my finest emails with my finest stories and my finest experiences, but that's just how the Mission do be sometimes. Scripture for the day is in Leviticus 19:16:
Thou shalt not go up and sown as a talebearer among thy people
Basically just do everything you can not to gossip. There's a ton of problems in this branch and it's just because everyone gossips. Try to love everyone as best you can and do something nice for someone. But ya, love you guys peace out
